[NCBS Editor's Notes:] In 1761, Emanuel Swedenborg wrote an outline, in Latin, entitled "Librorum Propheticorum et Psalmorum Davidis". In it, he sketched out in brief the inner meaning of the Prophetical Books of the Word, from Isaiah to Malachi, and the Psalms, and then the first 16 chapters of Genesis. This draft provides a survey of the inner meaning of a substantial portion of the Old Testament, all in one place. It was not published by Swedenborg, but it was written after Arcana Coelestia, and it is largely consistent with other more detailed treatments made in his published works. 2
In the original Latin manuscript, Swedenborg cross-referred the outlined internal sense to a more general Table of Subjects 3 , shown above.
In the following passages, those references are shown in parentheses, e.g. (3) would refer to subject number 3 above.
Each chapter of each book of the Prophets has one corresponding numbered section in Swedenborg's explanation of its inner meaning, or internal sense. Swedenborg listed the verses that relate to each outlined point. We have added hyperlinks to the verse references, shown to the left of each outlined point. The Psalms and initial chapters of Genesis are treated in a similar fashion.

In the same manuscript, at the beginning, Swedenborg wrote out a list of works that he intended to write and publish. While it's clearly related to the project of outlining the internal meaning of the Prophets, Psalms, and historical parts of the Word, it seems to be an independent list. We reproduce that list below, with its prefatory remarks:

1. Editor's Note (Schreck): No. 14 is crossed out by Swedenborg in his MS., and is never referred to in the text. It reads, "The state of unition with His Divine," which is the same as item number 10 in the list.
2. Swedenborg refers to this work in Doctrina Novae Hierosolymae de Domino 37.
Readers may also find these comparisons to be useful:
- The explanation of Ezechiel 1 (in n. 124 of this work) with Doctrina Novae Hierosolymae de Scriptura Sacra 97,
- Nos. 161 and 162 of this work, explaining Ezechiel 38, 39, with Apocalypsis Revelata 859,
- No. 236 of this work, explaining Sacharias 4, with Apocalypsis Revelata 43, and
- Nos. 244-246 of this work, explaining Sacharias 12, 13, 14, with Apocalypsis Revelata 707.]
3. In the beginning of this manuscript, Swedenborg listed the topics, or subjects, that he would use to classify his explanations of the chapters and verses of the Prophets, Psalmuss, and the first 16 chapters of Genesis. We have added lookup hyperlinks so that the reader can refer back to this list readily. We received the Latin text for this "front matter" from the Heavenly Doctrines Publishing Foundation.
4. In the manuscript, there's also this list of passages from the New Testament that relate to the Lord's states of humiliation and glorification.
5. The transliterated Latin file that we used as a source had "quod glorificatus et alters glorificaberit," which we have changed to "quod glorificatus et rursus glorificaberit," to match Schmidius. The reference to John 12:42-43 should probably be to Joh. 12:28.
6. There are some brief notes about parallels between the Psalmuss of David and of the Lord's life in the world.
7. The transliterated Latin file that we used as a source had Ps. CXIII as a reference, but the correct reference here would be to Psalmus CXVIII, or Psalmus 118.
8. The manuscript also has this brief summary of the series of spiritual events that will happen as the church fails and a new one is begun. See Doctrina Novae Hierosolymae de Domino 3 for an outline of a similar set of themes that form the internal sense of the prophetical books.
